What are we going to do today?
2
We’re going to learn a new activity for practicing vocabulary.
3
Hmmm. We already learned a couple of ways to understand our words better. Let me remember…
5
Oh, yeah! Last class, we started to PLAY with the words. And before that, we found a lot of sentences for context examples.
6
Wow! You are clever to remember all that! Today we are going to PLAY with words again, but we are also going to practice finding IMAGES to represent our words.
7
Why?
8
Why! I love that question! Some fancy scientists have discovered that it helps us learn words better when we represent—or show--them with pictures.
9
Oh, goody! I can’t wait! What will I be able to do at the end of class?
10
Fabulous question! You will be able to do THREE things. This is YOU in the future:
11
I can find images to represent (show) word meanings I can identify at least 3 internet resources for finding word images I can create an Animoto to represent and play with a word
12
What on earth is an Animoto?
13
Soon, all shall be revealed…
